Why Listen-and-Write.com It Might Be A Killer

Since this site does not allow you to save your transcriptions and export them to a word processing program, it can’t be used by professional transcribers. It could however, become a popular tool for teachers and students of English as a Second Language since it is a great way of practicing listening skills.
